The really interesting question this brings up is, is there some causal relationship between students that study music and their likelihood of taking calculus? (e.g. Assuming we call all kids that take calculus "smart kids", are smart kids more likely to also study music, or does studying music make kids into smart kids) Or, is there just some selection bias where kids from a certain background are more likely to do both?
